To configure BIND DNS server

To Create Forward Zone File

vim /var/named/huuphan.local.zone
The output as bellow
;
; BIND data file for local loopback interface
;
$TTL    604800
@       IN      SOA     ns1.huuphan.local. admin.huuphan.local. (

86400         ; Retry
2419200         ; Expire
604800 )       ; Negative Cache TTL
;
; name servers - NS records
@       IN      NS      ns1.huuphan.local.
@               MX              10   mail.huuphan.local.
; name servers - A records
ns1                 IN A                 192.168.131.10

mta     IN      A       192.168.131.12
mailbox     IN      A       192.168.131.13

To Create Reverse Zone File

vim /var/named/131.168.192.rev
The output as bellow
;
; BIND reverse data file for local loopback interface
;
$TTL    604800
@       IN      SOA     ns1.huuphan.local. admin.huuphan.local. (
1         ; Serial
604800         ; Refresh
86400         ; Retry
2419200         ; Expire
604800 )       ; Negative Cache TTL
;
; name servers
@       IN      NS      ns1.huuphan.local.
; PTR Records
11     IN      PTR     ldap.huuphan.local.
12     IN      PTR     mta.huuphan.local.
13     IN      PTR     mailbox.huuphan.local.
To add lines in named.conf file.
vim /etc/named.conf

The output as bellow
# Forward DNS
zone "huuphan.local" IN {
        allow-update { none; };
        file "/var/named/huuphan.local.zone";
        type master;
};
# Reverse DNS
zone "131.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
        allow-update { none; };
        file "/var/named/131.168.192.rev";
        type master;
};
To restart and enable DNS bind
service named restart
chkconfig named on

To test BIND DNS

nslookup command host

nslookup ns1.huuphan.local
The output as bellow

Server:         192.168.131.10
Address:        192.168.131.10#53
Name:   ns1.huuphan.local
Address: 192.168.131.10
nslookup command ip address
nslookup 192.168.131.10
The output as bellow
Server:         192.168.131.10
Address:        192.168.131.10#53
10.131.168.192.in-addr.arpa     name = ns1.huuphan.local.
